Earning It

A dear friend from my childhood recently got engaged and now must spend a year apart from her fiance because of his work (military).  She recently posted on facebook that her and her fiance would work hard at the long distance relationship and earn that trip down the aisle.  Earn it!  I love that!

So many of us spend time feeling entitled to everything including love and money.  That's why I love fitness, because it is one of those things you have to earn, you can't just fall into it (like love) and you can't get it through a lottery (like money).  It is something you have to work hard at, as are all things that are really worth having.

To my friend, I am so happy you are earning that trip down the aisle.  You are so wonderful and this man is so lucky to have met you.  Rock his world Rosie!

Right now, I am working on earning my happiness and my someday (and I will say it is really hard).  I have already earned my fitness but I won't take that for granted, that is something I must work on everyday for the rest of my life.

Earn it today!
